- the representative recall petitioner’s mailing address (if different from the street address)
- the representative recall petitioner's telephone number or email address (if any)
- confirmation that the representative recall petitioner is eligible to sign the recall petition and consents to the responsibilities of leading the recall petition, gathering signatures, and otherwise undertaking the role and discharging the duties of a representative recall petitioner
